Chapter 346
"Quiet, all keep me calm! Listen to the captain's orders! The
first mate quickly yelled to quiet the command room, and also woke Captain Thompson from his panic by the way!
"Damn it!"
"Right full rudder, dodge torpedoes with all your might!"
"Fire torpedo decoy shells and anti-torpedo sonic devices, not let torpedoes get near us!"
"Ready to launch anti-torpedo rocket depth bombs at any time, first mate, you look at the point torpedo..."
"Urgently release unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and unmanned underwater detectors, let me find out the submarine!"
"The anti-missile system is turned on, calculate the trajectory of the opponent's missiles, immediately the camera launches the RAM anti-aircraft missile, and I will shoot the opponent's missiles down!"
"The Phalanx air defense system is turned on, and nothing that can fly can be allowed to get close to us!"
"Everyone give me back to the combat post, don't panic, follow the usual training operation! All keep me calm! At
this moment, a series of orders continued to come out of the captain's mouth, in fact, many operations did not need to be said, the trained operators below had begun the relevant preparations, and at this moment heard his orders and immediately carried out the relevant operations.
In the command room, there was a hectic situation, all doing their best to survive!
The Vesme began to play extreme turns and drifts on the surface of the sea, and the huge hull tilted to the right, resisting the centrifugal force brought about by the sharp turn to the right, and the right chord was already very close to the surface of the sea....
In the cockpit, folders, pens or other things are constantly thrown out of the workbench, even the coffee cup that the captain just put on the workbench has fallen off the deck, and coffee is scattered everywhere, but no one cares about these details, they are desperately completing the operation in hand!
At such a critical juncture, no one cares about anything other than saving their lives!
After a rapid right-angle maneuver of the hull, the hull was just straightened, and several anti-aircraft missiles were fired in succession from the stern, and at the same time, the dense array system located on both sides of the ship's side also heard the sound of humming mechanical high-speed operation, and several popping sounds, that is, torpedo decoy shells and anti-torpedo sonic devices were launched....
The Vesme is worthy of being the main ship of the beautiful Navy, its air defense and anti-submarine capabilities are not covered, and the most correct defensive operation was made in a very short time. Under the continuous interception of two batches of six RAM anti-aircraft missiles, two ballistic missiles of the Republic of America were successfully intercepted, one of the underwater torpedoes was destroyed by a rocket depth shell, and the other was deviated from the trajectory by a torpedo decoy shell.
Captain Thompson wiped the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead, and just about to say something, radio administrator Snape reported loudly:
"Report captain, the other party asks to talk to you directly!"
The captain glanced at the first mate and said loudly:
"Connect the other party's call to the loudspeaker, and in addition, immediately report our current situation to the headquarters!"
A thick male voice with an authentic Lonton English accent came from the loudspeaker in the command room:
"Enemy ships, please note that we have identified your ship as the destroyer Vesme belonging to the Canal Authority, and since we have declared war on your side, you and I are already at war. Your vessel's intrusion into our territorial waters is an act of belligerence.
"Out of humanitarian spirit, our side has just fired a warning at your ship, and now we demand that all the crew of your ship give up resistance, turn off all power and weapon systems, surrender unconditionally, and wait for our next instructions, if your side refuses, our side will sink your ship, this is the only warning, if we do not receive a satisfactory answer in a minute, our side will launch an all-out attack!"
"The countdown starts, 59 seconds... 58 seconds... 57 seconds..." Captain
Thompson's face was livid, his forehead was blue, and he thought for a moment and said:
"The son of a bitch!" Want us to surrender, let us be a shame for a beautiful country, let the whole world laugh! "
Shit!"
"Command! Adjust your course to due north, go full speed ahead, and maintain a fighting stance with the island! All members enter battle mode! "
Immediately release the anti-submarine helicopter!"
"Turn on the radar, aim at the target, and immediately launch a ground attack missile! The naval gun aimed at the missile position of the opponent just now, and immediately opened fire when it was ready, razing that small island to the ground!
"Turn on electronic warfare, suppress the opponent's radar at full power, launch anti-radiation missiles, and knock out their radar system for me!"
"Underwater sonar for vigilant exploration, constant vigilance for submarine-launched missiles and torpedoes, and microwave full-band jamming, forcing the other side to interrupt communications..."
"What the hell is that such a small broken island even has missiles and submarines!"
The sound transmission effect of steel is very good, even if he is in the command room, he can faintly hear the sound of the officers and soldiers running on the ship, as well as the "clanging" sound caused by the impact of equipment and equipment during various combat preparations.
I haven't felt the noise of such a war for a long time, and the last time I felt such an atmosphere was in the Mediterranean many years ago....
At this moment, the countdown in the megaphone stopped, and a slightly mocking and icy tone sounded:
"Mr. Captain, we have detected that your side is adjusting the angle of radar irradiation, and focus on our missile base, this is an obvious act of war, our side will no longer wait for your ship to reply, will immediately open fire, you, as the commander, will bear all the consequences of the war, finished!"
The captain gritted his teeth and said nothing, but raised the binoculars in his hand and looked nervously at the three small islands through the porthole window....
According to intelligence, the southernmost island of the three small islands was an uninhabited island, but now, twelve flames rose up on that small island!
At the same time, there was a loud noise, which was the whistling of shells fired from the main gun of the destroyer Vesme, and at the same time, the missile vertical launcher located in the stern of the ship fired more than a dozen missiles in a row.
"Captain, the other party launched..."
"Captain, there was a continuous shock sound under the water, torpedoes, a large number of torpedoes!"
"Damn, there are at least four conventionally powered submarines lurking underwater, advancing with us from both east and west, no more than 10 nautical miles away, they are too quiet..."
"Hurry up and fire torpedo decoy shells and anti-torpedo sonic devices..." Captain
Thompson's ears heard a noisy sound in the command room, and the hand holding the telescope was already beginning to tremble, and he saw in horror from the telescope that before the naval gun shell hit the island, In addition, twelve straight flames rose into the air, and this missile was launched too fast!
"Boom!"
The shell hit the island accurately, and there was a huge explosion, and at the same time as the explosion sounded, the hull of the ship trembled again, indicating that another cannon was ejected!
However, this does not mean victory, his "caustic-class" destroyer can defend against up to 16 air targets at once, but now 24 missiles are rushing towards them, which is beyond their maximum air defense, and at the same time, there are torpedoes under the water that do not know how much are coming at them ....
"It's over!"
Now there is no need for his command, all the people are doing their best to operate anything that can be launched and carry out the final desperate resistance, but in the face of the absolute superiority in quantity, even if they miss one, it will bring them great disaster!
"Too careless, caught the other party's trap, too close to them..."
This was Captain Thompson's last thought!
The first two anti-ship missiles, the first to break through the defense system of the Vesme, one of them hit the command room, there was a huge explosion, while the other, in a strange posture from a high altitude vertical hit the stern of the ship, one explosion after another sounded, it is clear that this missile caused the destruction of the shipborne vertical missile system....
The anti-submarine helicopter had just taken off from the deck of the ship a minute ago and did not fly far, and at this moment the helicopter pilot and two other crew members were hovering at a low altitude not far away, looking in horror at the destroyer that constantly exploded and black smoke rose up, unable to say a word ....
What type of missile did the people on the island use, which turned out to be so powerful?
Although the "caustic" destroyer is not a steel behemoth like a battleship, its front and side protective armor has also been thickened, and the general anti-ship missiles, one or two shots, although it will also cause huge losses to the destroyer, but it will definitely not be as powerful as it is now....
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "
There were several loud noises in succession, it was the explosion of the second batch of anti-ship missiles and underwater torpedoes hitting the hull, at this moment, the originally mighty and domineering Vesme had burned into a fireball, and the hull also broke, split in half, and slowly sank down.
This slow sinking speed also shows from the side that the watershed compartment of the "Mean-class" destroyer is very reasonably designed to withstand a certain degree of torpedo and missile attack without sinking.
Where did this tiny island nation get such powerful missiles and torpedoes?
The three people on the anti-submarine helicopter looked solemnly at the island in the distance, also smoking thickly, full of doubts....
The dozen or so ground attack missiles launched by the Vesm in a desperate fight were all shot down by the opponent's air defense system at this moment, but the key to the problem is that they did not see the other side firing anti-aircraft missiles, or anti-aircraft weapons like the dense array system firing, how did they shoot down those missiles?
However, the most pressing question for them now is how to survive!
Because it was an emergency release, the fuel tank of the helicopter was not even half full, only enough for them to fly for an hour and a half, and in the face of the vast sea, they had no other choice but to surrender and land on the island!
Surrender is the only way out for them to survive!
At this time, the communicator on the plane constantly flashed a red light, which was the indicator light for receiving a communication request, and the helicopter pilot only hesitated for a moment and then pressed the answer button....
